[@PureDetour]

Come and meet Kueene Lacson. This inspirational women gave up the corporate world 15 years ago to pursue the preservation and dissemination of the rare Liberica coffee bean. she is an awe inspiring story that deserve everybody's support

Hi Geoff! I am julian do you remember me from the farm?

@@julianbautistam.lacson2563, of course I remember you from the farm! What are you doing on KZbin?🤣

[@PureDetour]

Very happy to see you here, Julian. Hope all is well with you

[@sumakwelvictoria5635]

Kapeng Barako! Some several years ago it was hard to find barako. Some coffee tree diseases devastated Liberica coffee plantations...good to know it is on the way up in cultivation.

[@PureDetour]

Kueenie's work is a playing a vital role in helping to revitalize the Liberica trees. She is truly an awe inspiring woman.

[@Nikay-h4q]

Wow thank you for featuring Kyles ❤

[@PureDetour]

Kyles was amazing but the best part was probably Kyle himself! Such an awesome young man.👍

[@frankiefernandez9225]

Just love the 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭👏👏👏

[@PureDetour]

You already know it! ❤️🇵🇭❤

[@EricSon_akuma]

Ahh Barako. Potent stuff. Did you also try barako brewed the traditional way? i.e. Steeped in a pot until sediment settles at the bottom. Then carefully ladle coffee to your mug (carefully-- so that you don't agitate the sediment at the bottom)

[@PureDetour]

I didn't actually try it that way but Queenie explained the process to me. Next time, promise

[@queenielacson7275]

❤❤❤ Thank you very much, we appreciate and value your passion @Pure Detour... Coffee cheers to your next endeavours!!!

[@PureDetour]

You my friend are one of the rare gems on the face of this planet. Your continued preservation of these rare trees is one the most inspirational things I have ever witnessed. I hope life gives you everything you truly deserve

[@christinesaludares4724]

Hi Geoff! Your vlogs makes me so proud to be from Bacolod. I didn't realize that there's so much hidden gems. Thank you!

[@PureDetour]

You are the best, Christine. Thank you so much for the recommendations while I was there

[@christinesaludares4724]

You're very welcome! Take care and be safe.

[@dennisdiamante1904]

Proud Bacolodnon and Negrense. Negros has leveled up in many ways and tourism-wise.

[@PureDetour]

You should be VERY proud, Dennis. amazing city and province

[@teresal5174]

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Liberica must be what we call "BARAKO," I take it? That is delicious coffee if good beans roasted properly are used! Will see if I can purchase some of the Liberica here in the States! (Is it available here?)

[@PureDetour]

To the best of my knowledge it is not available currently in the States. I know there was some shipments before the pandemic that were going all over the world, but I don't think they are doing it anymore. I will ask Queenie next time I speak with her

[@teresal5174]

@@PureDetour - Gosh, thanks for the thoughtful reply! Hope there's a source of Queenie's coffee over here - but I imagine the price will be steep, seeing that it's so labor-intensive in its care and processing! Would that I could taste even the cup of coffee from the beans YOU had crushed! 😁

[@EsEs-sv1qd]

Thanks for shining light into Philippine coffee

[@PureDetour]

My absolute pleasure. I only hope I did Kueenie and Café Ganin justice. Her work is so important

[@ring0628-rfo]

[@nikkojd.5907]

Awesome content. Need to visit this farm when I go back home. Cheers!

Thank you so much. Be sure you do take the opportunity to visit. I left links for the plantation in the video description.

You are amazing my friend. I can't begin to thank you enough for your support!!!!

[@christanime5494]

Sir.....do you have the video here in TUNA REPUBLIK DAVAO

[@PureDetour]

Who is this, and how do you know where I have filmed anything?

[@darrylk808]

And I thought this was going to be about the Civet $#!+ coffee...you know the one.💩 Love people with passion! 👍

[@PureDetour]

Had the opportunity to do the civet coffee when I was in Bali. Didn't feel comfortable showcasing the practices they use these days with the civets so opted not to participate. Cafe Ganin on the other hand is full of dedication and extremely hard work just to produce a little bit of product. Queenie is one of those people I will look back on and admire. Thanks for watching as always, Darryl. Your continued support means the world to me

[@lancefortaleza3665]

Of all the major cities in the Philippines I've been to...only Bacolod and negros occidental continues the tradition of serving Native coffee in cafeterias...

[@PureDetour]

Bacolod and Negros Occidental are pretty special in many ways. And you are correct, the coffee here is amazing

[@lancefortaleza3665]

@@PureDetour Negros Occidental is so underrated in Tourism..But for me who have been to many known tourist destination provinces..i can say..Neg.Occ. is unique and has a lot to offer..not just the usual tourist magnet beaches and the likes..

[@TheBacolodFoodHunters]

What's the difference between a wood pigeon and a regular pigeon? Wood pigeons taste delicious. 🤣🤣🤣

[@bigchungus2667]

If you guys followed the main dirt road beside cafe ganin you'd end up in my mango farm just up ahead!!!

[@clioh_ethmenel]

Don't want to be that guy but...mit's actually not a wood pigeon, it's a zebra dove or korokokok. 😅

[@PureDetour]

Haha, no worries and thanks for the clarification. Are zebra doves or Korokok delicious too?

[@clioh_ethmenel]

@@PureDetour I honestly haven't tried! :D but everything tastes delicious cooked adobo-style anyways. Haha. Excellent videos of food stops in our island btw, thanks for exploring truly local locations!
